Interesting to say the least. Maybe you guys can tell me if this is a garage job or authentic. Didn't get pics yet of all thats viewable my camera just doesn't have the clarity needed.

This 25 cent has multiple marks on Obverse and reverse, it's also warped in other words does not lay flat on a surface. The markings under the "H" at the bottom of the Cariboo leads me to believe that it wasn't purposely done because the "H" wasn't disturbed. But then... I don't know too much Laughing

Looks like me that was mulitated. The mark on the nose with the reversed letters is a give away, along with the bent rim mark. So I would say garage job. Looks like someone was trying to create something that the mint didn't make. Always make me look a second time though.

Coop beat me to it, but I'll agree with his comments, "Garage job".

Sandra, I got your PM, but can't reply, for some reason. I am going to shut down, and then try again. In case I can't reply, I'll send you a PM.
